Abstract
The title compound, [CoCl2(C11H20ClN 2)2], forms two intra-molecular hydrogen bonds [graph set S(5)] between the N atoms of the pyrazole ligands and the chloride ligands. This hydrogen-bonding motif is uncommon among related compounds but occurs here because of the bulk of tert-butyl substituents on the pyrazole ligands which shield the central metal atom to a significantly larger extent than pyrazole ligands with smaller 3,5-substituents.
